A N T J E Z I J L S T R A (2000)
I am a multidisciplinary designer with a background in spatial design, branding, and visual storytelling. My work moves between digital and physical design, from shaping spaces and concepts to creating online visibility for brands.
Currently I collaborate with ToTheMaks, where I design and support branding, campaigns, and creative marketing strategies. Alongside this, I am developing my own path in photography and film, capturing my journey in Zanzibar and building a portfolio of visual stories.
In Zanzibar, I am open to projects that merge design and hospitality:
Spatial concepts for land, housing, or hotel developments
Social media & website design for local businesses
Content creation (photo, video & campaigns) to bring projects to life
- My focus is on creating designs and stories that are authentic, impactful, and tailored to the people and places I work with -
